Halloween Fun

We usually like to paint our pumpkins instead of carve them.  I hate making messes and carving is so messy and only lasts for a short time.  When you paint, they last all month.
 Hayden did the mummy and I did the Frankenstein, Jeremy hasn't finished his yet.

I enjoy making things out of clay and I have a snowmen and penguin set I have made for Winter decorations. So this year, I decided to make a Halloween clay set.
First, I mold each item out of sculpy clay.  Then I have to cook them for about 5 hours in the oven to make them hard.  Then I paint them all.  It is a fun little project for me, it takes a couple of days to complete.  I think I might start making them for each holiday.
